Studentin Greeley, Colorado

I am currently a senior at the University of Northern Colorado studying Business Administration with an emphasis in Marketing.

I have always been passionate about people. I enjoy socializing and understanding why people are the way they are. This may sound similar to that of a student studying psychology; however, I was drawn to business. I am fascinated by companies who are successful when expanding because they know how to adapt their marketing strategies to fit the culture at hand.

In addition to understanding cultures, I am also intrigued by travel. I love to explore new places. In February 2015 I traveled to Prague, Czech Republic for the semester to study business. The five months I spent there only further increased my passion of experiencing different cultures. Not only was I impressed by companies who adapted their business between states, I now had the opportunity to understand how companies adapt their advertising campaigns on an international level and still succeed.

Marketing presents a world of opportunities, and due to my passions for people and traveling, I am pursuing a career in Global Marketing.
